Job 11:12 — Meaning and Application

If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him? {cut...: or, make a change} {hinder...: Heb. turn him away?}

For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider {it}?

For vain man would be wise, though man be born {like} a wild ass's colt. {vain: Heb. empty}

If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;

If iniquity {be} in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.
